About Us

Sweeties is a small shop in Historic Seaport Georgetown, SC. We are on Front Street just a few door down from the Clock Tower and Rice Museum. Our building dates back to 1870, the floor, walls, and ceiling beams are original. It is a small quaint shop where we manage to create some delicious candies. We make our pralines, fudge, and caramel in a 20 quart steam jacket kettle. The toffees and brittles are made on a single hot plate. The ice cream maker is the largest piece of equipment. Skip & Cindy purchased Sweeties in 2006. They were searching for a business on the coast that would pay their personal bills. The area would become their home and home to their main purpose, their driving force, which was to build an animal rescue and sanctuary for unwanted, abused exotic and domestic animals. SC Coastal Animal Rescue & Educational Sanctuary was born in Georgetown, SC later that year. Sweeties acts as an information center for the sanctuary, for more information on SC-CARES go to www.sc-cares.org.When you're in Georgetown come by and visit.We enjoy talking to you.
